Givenchy Introduces Its Newest It-Bag: the Voyou
A French slang term that translates to “bad boy.”
With the spring season right around the corner, Givenchy is launching its newest statement bag.
Dubbed the Voyou, the purse designed by creative director Matthew M. Williams was first introduced on the designer’s Spring/Summer 2023 ready-to-wear runway at Paris Fashion Week last year. Translating to “bad boy” in French, the accessory dons a biker look with buckled strap detailing on the sides creating a V shape, while Givenchy’s logo subtly appears on the front. The rectangular shape slouches with its grained calfskin material, completing a hobo-like feel. The interior of the bag features zippered compartments for your phone, wallets, keys and more.
Offered in mini, medium and large sizing options, the Voyou can be styled in various ways, from crossbody to hand-carry. The bag is crafted with a variety of textures such as tumbled leather, metalized leather, soft-crafted denim and satin.
The handbag, arriving in an array of colors, screams Parisian chic. “I wanted to revisit fashion archetypes with a kind of new language and a playful attitude. With the Voyou, you know at a glance that it’s Parisian, but it’s at home wherever it goes, and it makes an everyday style statement that has true staying power,” Williams says in a press release.
Take a closer look at the Voyou above. The purse is now available online and in stores in black, ivory, silk pink or mint green tumbled leather; gunmetal laminated textured leather or leather-free crafted denim in medium sizing; and in silver leather or satin embellished with silvery stress in mini sizing. Prices range from $1,500 USD for the mini version to $2,500 USD for the large iteration.
